civil rights movement being worthy of teaching does not mean gay rights is worthy. Note I am not saying it is not worthy, just thato ne does not imply the other.

Well I suppose you don't have to read the whole thread, so I'll quickly sum up everything I've said that I was coming from.

I did not read the article - because I'm lazy and don't like to read. I only read the synopsis in the OP. I mistakenly automatically translated it to an issue I was recently talking about in a class, which is the mandate of increased women figures in history. my argument is that we can assume a built history curriculum is 100% efficient, in that it has the most important figures of history taught in the time allotted. To force in other figures, which are by definition inferior, results in a poorer education.
